Microsoft's Seeing AI mobile application for the visually impaired can identify certain types of cash.

The function has existed since 2017, and the last update brought an algorithm that, in addition to the British pound, euro, Canadian and American dollars, can also determine the Indian rupee. Thus, the application supports five different types of currencies. Seeing AI is available in 56 countries.

Microsoft claims to have over 30,000 monthly active users.

The latest update also brings enhanced landscape support and an improved UI for the iPhone X. Seeing AI for iOS was first introduced at the 2017 San Francisco AI Summit

The application is powered by computer vision. Its purpose is to describe the world around us to the blind and visually impaired. The lens of a mobile device is used to detect objects in real time. In addition to determining the currency, the application is also able to read documents and signs, describe a person's appearance, name objects and their color. Users can independently adjust the tone and speech rate.

A press release from Microsoft says that Seeing AI is a unique technology that can help even a completely blind person navigate in space, pay for purchases and not be afraid of being deceived.
